Because of Ma Cuihua's fuss, Yang Sheng came home a little later, and when he got home, his mother had just prepared breakfast.

"Aniang, I'm back." Aniang Yang was making breakfast in the room, and she was startled when she heard her son's voice. Why did the child come back again?Could it be that he was driven back?

It's no wonder Aunt Yang thought so, she knew that her son's in-laws treated her son badly, and she felt very uneasy that the child came back so early today.

After Yang Sheng entered the room, his mother also came out from the kitchen. After Yang Sheng put down the things on his back, he took the things out while talking with his mother.

"Aniang, when we separated, didn't the family get a lot of meat? I cut some bacon for you and brought it back. After the pork is boiled, you can put some of it in when you stir-fry to keep your health healthy."

It seemed that she was thinking too much. Seeing what her son slowly took out, Aunt Yang let go of the things she had just mentioned in her throat.But looking at those things, Aunt Yang began to worry again. The child had just got married, and her in-laws would be upset to bring so many things home.

"Birth, although the Wan family is rich, no mother-in-law would like a daughter-in-law who always moves things to her mother's house. Don't keep bringing things back in the future. How much food can Auntie eat alone? Auntie can support herself now. In the future, you are not allowed to bring so many things home and ask your in-laws to reason." Of course her son Xiao Yang, Auntie Yang, was pleased, but she wanted her son to have a smoother life at his in-laws.

As soon as Yang Sheng heard his aunt's words, he knew that his aunt had misunderstood, but he didn't know whether he should make it clear to his aunt. In fact, his aunt had misunderstood. His mother should be relieved.

"Aniang, it's okay, his family doesn't care about such things."

"You child, you can talk like this. Anyway, you have to remember what Auntie said, and stop running to your mother's house in the future. Just take something small when you come back, so that your in-law's family can treat you well."

"Understood, Ma'am." After all the fuss this morning, Yang Sheng understood that there is no difference between the Wan family and the person who said he stole pumpkins when he was a child. Right or wrong, it doesn't matter to them, because what they hate is themselves, not what they do. If another person does the same thing as themselves, maybe they don't have the same attitude.

Ordinary bacon is very tough. Not only does it take a lot of time to cook, but it also takes a lot of effort to cut it and stew it. The bacon Yang Sheng bought is two pieces of rib meat, and one piece weighs five catties.Yang Sheng knew that his aunt didn't have much strength in her hands, so he thought it better not to go to the field, and let his aunt take out the meat first.Yang Sheng first took the bones off the meat, then chopped the meat into palm-sized pieces, and then chopped the long bone strips into one-inch lengths and put them aside.Those pieces of meat cost a dozen or twenty yuan in total. Yang Sheng put them in a jar, thinking that the meat should be enough for his mother to eat for three months.

"Grandma, stewed white beans with bacon is the best. I forgot to buy one when I went to the market yesterday. I will bring it to you next time I go to buy it. Those short ribs are not easy to put away. You should stew them these few days." , I will go up the mountain today to look for mushrooms, if I can find them, I can stew them today." After packing up the bacon, Yang Sheng looked at the things in the kitchen, and found that he didn't have much salt, so he bought it himself.Farmers’ seasonings are simple. It’s good to add some salt to common dishes. Only the occasional stewed dishes use more complicated seasonings.

Lard is much easier to cut than bacon, so Yang Sheng is going to let his mother cook the oil herself. He wants to go to the mountains and cut some kindling for his mother.

When Yang Sheng went out carrying the larger basket at home, he met many people who were returning from the mountains. Everyone in the village knew that Yang Sheng had married to the Wan family, and they all knew that he married for his cousin. I just guessed that Yang Sheng would have a hard time after he got married, but now looking at the outfit Yang Sheng is wearing, he is even more certain.Why would the daughter-in-law of the landlord’s house wear the same clothes as the shabby ones in the village? A little brother actually wears straw sandals like the men, and the clothes are all washed and turned white with pudding on them. What’s the use of marrying a rich family? , If you are not a good child-bearing girl, don't think that your husband's family will treat you well.

It is a happy event for everyone in the village to give birth to a girl and a young master. Only those who are born with a young brother will worry. The young brother is not as strong as the young master and not as easy to raise as a girl. The same mouth for eating is the most useless.Yang Sheng didn't care about the people who were whispering beside him, he just walked his own way honestly, although there was only one way up the mountain, but after entering the mountain, it was accessible in all directions.

Because the number of mountain mushrooms is very small, they only grow on dead wood, so Yang Sheng mainly went to cut hay and go home to use as kindling for his mother.After entering the mountain, he walked to the place where there were few trees and grass exposed.

In the mountain forest behind Yangjia Village, the trees are much sparser compared to Wanjiaba. In some places, there is not even a single tree, and all of them are full of withered grass. People in the village will cut back these dry grass to start fires or lay pigsties.

Yang Sheng was lucky today, it was a cloudy day with no sun, otherwise he would suffer when the sun came out.In order to pretend a little more, Yang Sheng didn't tie up the grass, but directly trapped it into a straw handle, which saves space, and his mother can use it for a long time.After Yang Sheng's grass was mowed, he still didn't see the mushroom, so he went home directly. It was luck to pick up the mushroom, so if he couldn't find it today, he should go back.

As soon as Yang Sheng arrived at the door, he heard his aunt's voice, because the two houses were connected to each other, and if they were outside the door, it would be difficult to tell whose house they were in, so Yang Sheng just opened the door and went in.

"My nephew is back, why are you working so hard? Your mother can't go up the mountain, so you can ask your uncle to do it."

"Uncle." Yang Sheng doubted his ears and eyes. The voice and tone are a little too kind, right?This is my uncle?No matter how doubtful Yang Sheng was, he didn't show it, because he felt that the aunt should need help from himself or his mother, otherwise he would never have such an attitude.

After putting the straw on the place where the firewood was built, Yang Sheng went to wash his face before going to the small hall.When he went in, he saw his mother looking at him with some embarrassment and self-blame, while his uncle was sitting next to his mother, holding his mother's hand affectionately, chatting non-stop , the content is probably that Yang Liniang is going to get married, how powerful his husband's family will be in the future, and what benefits will be gained after his family and their relatives are in the market.

Yang Sheng didn't understand the situation, and he didn't intend to answer his uncle's words, so he just sat aside and took a cup to pour water for himself.Seeing her son's leisurely look, Aunt Yang had no choice but to speak out. She didn't know why the sister-in-law would come today, and how she would see the money she put on the table.

"Son, why did you bring so much money home? Is there any use for it?" Aunt Yang asked her son nervously. Well, if their family took the money away, it would not be borrowed but given away.

As soon as Aniang Yang said what he said, and then contacted his aunt's anomaly, Yang Sheng knew what was going on, and it was his idea to put his own money in cooperation with his aunt.Yang Sheng didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Auntie, why did you put the silver outside? Didn't you tell you to put it away? I will take it with me when I leave."

After the son's words were spoken, Aunt Yang finally found a reason, she smiled apologetically at the auntie and said: "Sister-in-law, you see, I said it is useful for having children, but you don't believe me, I really can't lend you this money. "

When the auntie heard this, she didn't care about Aunt Yang, she let go of Aniang Yang's hand, turned to Yang Sheng and said, "Nephew, your second sister is going to go out soon, the date has been set, but the family really can't afford it." No decent dowry. Look at your second sister who is married to a scholar and will be an official in the future. If you help her now, she will also be your backer in the future, right?"

The uncle's family did not hesitate to give up the marriage of Wan's family, but also wanted to marry their daughter to Li Xiucai's family, so that they could become relatives of the official family in the future. For the peasants, the relatives of the official family are more prestigious than the relatives of the landlord's family!So the uncle's family decided to give Yang Liniang a little more dowry in order to have face in the past when Yang Liniang married, and for the family to live better in the future.But all the dowry gifts and gift money that the family received from the Wan family, as well as the money they borrowed, were all spent. The family couldn't afford the money and had to find a way everywhere. Forget it, just go straight to the door.
